2. Mineral trioxide aggregate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_trioxide_aggregate

   Calcium aluminate bioceramic material - (alumina cement in minerals, calcium aluminate cements in bioceramics) Alumina is an initial fast setting element and high compressive strength. It has been used as dental products as luting agent. Calcium aluminate cement (bioceramic) has been developed for dental products and root-end filling material.

3. Dental sealant - Wikipedia

   Back teeth showing fissure system. Dental caries is an upset of the balance between loss and gain of minerals from a tooth surface. [3] The loss of minerals from the teeth occurs from the bacteria within the mouth, fermenting foods and producing acids, whereas the tooth gains minerals from our saliva and fluoride that is present within the mouth. [3]

4. Glass ionomer cement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_ionomer_cement

   Cermets, which are essentially metal reinforced, glass ionomer cements, used to aid in restoring tooth loss as a result of decay or cavities to the tooth surfaces near the gingival margin, or the tooth roots, though cermets can be incorporated at other sites on various teeth, depending on the function required. They maintain adhesion to enamel ...

5. Dental bonding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_bonding

   Adhesive dentistry is a branch of dentistry which deals with adhesion or bonding to the natural substance of teeth, enamel and dentin.It studies the nature and strength of adhesion to dental hard tissues, properties of adhesive materials, causes and mechanisms of failure of the bonds, clinical techniques for bonding and newer applications for bonding such as bonding to the soft tissue. [1]

6. Inlays and onlays - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inlays_and_onlays

   Bonding agents can be applied to dentine before cementation of inlays and onlays. [44] This is something that is very useful as dentine contains a lot of mineral, which makes binding more problematic. [44] A bonding agent that is applied straight after the preparation has been finished will give rise to greater dentine bond strengths. [44]

7. Dental composite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_composite

   Versatility: Composite fillings can be used to repair chipped, broken or worn teeth [18] which would not be repairable using amalgam fillings. Repairability: In many cases of minor damage to a composite filling, the damage can be easily repaired by adding additional composite. An amalgam filling might require complete replacement.
